Since in our tests we could load list of tables in access 2007, i  think 
you need to continue in format of bug report. and first thing that you

Both versions are fine for what you are doing. 5.1 in unicode driver, 
3.51 is ansi driver. that is their main difference.
Also 5.1 supports some more features  than 3.51.
